How hot are Hungarians?

Hi,

I bought some "Hungarian Yellow Wax Chile Pepper" (Botanical Interest seeds). which i had plan to grow for mostly pickling/canning (haven't seeded them yet).


originally, i thought these were just Banana sweet peppers (mild-heat) but now the name "Chile pepper" in the title of them has me wondering how hot they are since i read on a site here that they're much hotter.


i see that they also start off as yellow (when typically picked) and eventually turn orange/red. i'm assuming that is when they're at the peak of heat, but are they any sweeter/better when they are orange or red?


i typically stay around jalapeno pepper, Cherry hot and Beaver Dam heat levels. if they're much hotter than these peppers i might only start a couple plants vs. half a dozen or so i was planning to grow.
